Watching the griffin, having breakfast, demolishing the study, and then the three-person show of two old and one young, the first night back to the royal capital was wasted, but Lu Chen's figure really entered the eyes of the important ministers of the kingdom.

After the three of them cleaned up and changed rooms a little, Dwayne, who couldn't contain the joy in his heart, took Lu Chen to start a decisive meeting with only a few important ministers.

Because it was a temporary idea, no one prepared anything, and when Dwayne pointed to the people below and introduced Lu Chen one by one, he first asked Deleke and Claudio, the marshal of the kingdom, to make a brief report on the current situation inside and outside the city, and other finances and civil affairs were saved.

In addition, Dwayne personally mentioned that the eldest son wanted to force him to abdicate when Ulysses raised an army, but because Parn led the 34th Legion to unexpectedly and forcefully defend the north gate of the royal city that was originally controlled by Angus, forcing several legions belonging to the other party to enter the city, and finally led him to the inevitable failure of forcing the palace.

The nephew rebelled against him, after all, there was a reason for the incident, Dwayne had already been mentally prepared, and there was a letter sent back by Lu Chen before, but the eldest son took advantage of the fire to rob what he thought of, especially the few legions that were mobilized from nearby in a hurry and wanted to use them to support the academy to complete the sacrificial task, all of them had already belonged to Angus, which made him feel sad as a father and felt that he was very defeated. Because that shows that the eldest son in the first line has long had this plan, and his usual filial piety or something is pretended.

It makes sense that Delgado's group of mercenaries can leave the royal capital at will, but after looking at the matter of Angus, the love is obviously much worse than that of the king. Secretly glad that Lu Chen was sent by the reincarnation water in time. I had a headache, how to comfort this future father-in-law.

However, the effect of advancing to the Holy Rank seemed to be better than he thought. Before Lu Chen could think about what to say, Dwayne exhaled a breath of self-regulation, and continued in a sunny voice: "Okay now, the academy team is back, we are no longer isolated and helping, let's talk about what to do next? It is best to solve this matter before the end of the year, so that everyone in the kingdom can have a happy New Year." ”

Unfortunately, as soon as these words came out, the room became quiet. The important ministers, who were originally nothing, had dark clouds on their faces one by one. Nai, Dwayne could only point to the old marshal and ask him to speak.

"Uh~Your Majesty, the situation in the royal city is complicated, the three forces contain each other, if the law is dominant, the two princes' 10,000 reinforcements will only cause more losses. Please forgive the old minister, except for waiting for the arrival of reinforcements, he really can't think of a way to quickly break the enemy. The named Claudie Euro Shuai could only admit that he was unlucky and said it bluntly.

Since someone has made a start. Edoad, who is also the prime minister, can only give the king a face-saving sentence: "Your Majesty, as Claudius said." No matter how good the cadets are, they can't be counted among the reinforcements, and their loss here is a great misfortune for the future of the kingdom, and according to Prince Drake, at least half of the Second Prince's reinforcements are skirmishers, and our City Guard Legion was crippled during the rebellion, and there are only four legions that can be effective. ”

Then, the others were also forced to express their opinions, and some people asked Lu Chen and Deleke how they broke through the siege and entered the royal capital, and after learning about the flying monster that the griffin could control, they all sighed with joy and sighed about the luck of the kingdom or something, especially the few people who arranged their daughters to Lu Chen's side, and secretly gave a thumbs up to the king who forced them to "sell their daughters", secretly rejoicing in their wisdom and not coping with the arrangement of a few unsuccessful daughters.

However, the good news of the griffin monster only alleviated everyone's sorrows, and could not really dispel the gloom that shrouded the royal capital, because the result of everyone's calculation again was: even if the griffin was sent as a messenger immediately, and the reinforcements who received the order would leave immediately, it would take a week for the nearest reinforcements to arrive, not to mention that the year was approaching, it would be more difficult than usual to prepare food and grass, and the march would be slowed down due to the cold weather.

"Also, excluding the rebels and the legions we have now, there are only thirteen legions that can be used on the surface, and it is absolutely impossible to rush all of them, and if you want to have an overwhelming advantage, you must also mobilize the legions on the border. "As Marshal of the Kingdom, Claudine made the final additions.

"The closest to here is the northern border, and the defenders have fourteen legions, so let's draw five from there, and there will be five more ...... elsewhere."

"Wait, Your Majesty, all the legions to the north can't move. ”

Just as Dwayne was making a decision, Lu Chen suddenly interrupted him.

"Why? Ulysses has failed, what you said in the letter can't be born, is Belici a fool, or is the empire that has endured for decades willing to risk provoking war, and really intends to seize the nineteen cities in the north?"

"This~ I'll tell you...... Russell was dead, killed by Federico's sneak attack, and Bishop Jules was nearly killed by the Assassin's poisoned sword. "Drake wanted to hide this for the time being, but now he has to say it.

"What! is that the sixth prince of the empire who came here as an exchange student?"

"What can I do......

"They even dare to attack the bishop of the Holy See!"

"Even if Ulysses is captured alive this time, it is estimated that it will not have any effect......

"Conspiracy, definitely a conspiracy ......"

As soon as Deleke finished speaking, the ministers were shocked, after all, everyone present had been told, only Dwayne looked at Lu Chen and did not say anything; first, the possibility of this matter was also written on the letter, he had already guessed that Federico would succeed, and second, he saw the appearance of this little junior brother who wanted to speak and stopped, obviously there were other reasons that were not thought of.

"The people here are people I absolutely trust, so just say anything else. After waiting for a while, the room gradually quieted down, and seeing that Lu Chen was still hesitating, Dwayne had no choice but to speak. And this sentence also drew everyone's attention to Lu Chen.

Despite what the king said, considering the danger of the Calamity Scepter, Lu Chen did not dare to do so, walked to Dwayne's desk, and wrote the word "artifact" with a pen. Now that the three of them knew the whereabouts of the scepter, he really didn't want to make any more trouble.

It was only this moment that made the hearts of the important ministers beat wildly, for they saw the frightened looks on the faces of the king and Drake.

And Lu Chen, who was worried enough to stop Dwayne from mobilizing the Northern Legion, after thinking for a while, only added in a voice that they could hear: "Digren thinks that the Empire is worried that we will take the initiative to attack with it, but no one can guarantee that the other party will let go of the empty opportunity in the North. Mufat is critically ill, the empire is in a very delicate state, Dustin stares at Belich, if he makes a meritorious contribution or returns to the capital in disappointment at this time, it will be a peaceful evolution, and it is only in his best interest to let him stay on the border and not dare to attack us for the time being. ”

"In other words, to continue Ulysses' plan, but to replace Dustin's partner with us...... I like the idea, destroy the main force of the Armorine, and the kingdom will have at least a few more decades of peace. Dwayne smiled a little wryly as he listened to the thoughts. Of course, if he knew that this was part of Lu Chen's plan to help the "dead Russell" seize the throne, he would be crying and laughing, but fortunately, this did not affect his original intention of hoping for a peaceful kingdom.

As for Lu Chen, who calculated the old man, he made a somewhat weak decision, and tried his best to use his ability to relieve the crisis in the royal city before the year, so that Dwayne could live a happy and good year. To be continued!
